I have been suffering ups and downs on this combo
My big problem is the Social Phobia. I canīt talk
to people. I canīt make friends, Im always alone.
it is impossible for me to make a phone call, I dont like , I cant make a normal conversation. I canīt have a normal life.Seroquel and Nardil has helped me, Specially when
I reached the dose of 50mg of Seroquel,being on 60mg of Nardil ,my social
phobia got controlled a little bit more. In fact I had very goo days. Unfortunately this only lasted for 10 days, so I increased Seroquel again to 75mg. After 20 days nothing good has happened.
I have gained some weigth, sometimes Seroquel dont help to sleep and my libido is not good ( Although with time it has been increasing)What do you suggest me? should I ad another drug?
Im planning to increase Nardil to 75,but first I have to save some money.I would give anything to have a normal life

Hi Tepi,
>Im planning to increase Nardil to 75
I think that could really help your psych symptoms.........I suppose side effects are a concern though since you're already having side effects on 60mg.

Hi ed!
Yes side effects concern me. I have been dieting so I havenīt gain more weigth. Libido and anorgasmia have disapeared a little with time. I can orgasm easier and I feel more pleasure than before when doin it.Im worry about my work. I really envy those people
that are so nice and talkative. Itīs a great gift that undoubtedly is gonna help them to get a promotion. In my case I dont see any possibility to received a promotion in my life, I canīt even make a phonecall to the restaurant without being afraid. I wish one day I can control this thing, I need peace in my life.

I agree with Ed. You might get more side effects at a higher dose but they will probably decrease again once you get used to the higher doses.Did Nardil make you very hungry?

no actually not, nardil does not make me very hungry, I believe all the issue is due to an slower metabolism. I eat the same than before but now I am gaining weigth. In the past I could eat tons of chocolates, candies, ice cream and I did not gain weigth at all.

Do you believe I should return to 50mg of
Seroquel ? I have been for 24 days on 75mg
without any diference yet. The only thing
that has happened is that Seroquel has decreased
his somnolence effect on me. I dont feel anymore
that necessity to go bed after taking it. Itīs so rare. I dont know wheter this is because of
the dose or because I have developed tolerance to
the medicine.
What do you think?

Hi Tepi!
I think it might be best to return to Seroquel 50mg and increase the Nardil to 75mg.

That really bites! That's what I'm so scared of - that and increased appetite which would make me binge.Thanks.

Hi Tepi,
I think Nardil 75mg is more likely to be effective than an increased dose of Seroquel.
>Do you believe 75 is useless?
No. I just think Nardil 75mg is more likely to be helpful. You could stay at Seroquel 75mg if you like though.
Saludos!
